The "Grotto Spring" in Eureka Springs, Arkansas
Eastern Box Turtle
The Eastern Box Turtle: It has an incredible range, well past the Mississippi River and as far north as northern Michigan - - that means it can endure some pretty icey conditions. Can live to over a hundred years. This fellow was found in my back yard. Considering there are 6 outdoor cats patrolling the premises, that makes for a fairly sneaky turtle.
